[1] “My research is focused on accelerating the transitions towards sustainable and low-carbon economies by studying the case of Developing Countries. I use system dynamics models to inform public policy and sustainability transitions theoretical frameworks to ground my findings. I lead the Sustainable Energy Innovation Group (Sinergia) at UFSC. My research has been published in several journals and in specialized conferences across the world. I held visiting positions at Universidad Autonoma de Madrid (Spain), University of Tampere (Finland) and University of Bremen (Germany) and received training at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (USA).”
